Stationary exercise apparatus has a frame, a chain with a seat and back adjustably mounted on the frame and a boom extending forward from the frame. A crank shaft is journaled in a gear mount at a distal end of the boom, and cranks and pedals are connected to the crank shaft. An outer telescopic member of the boom is fixed to the frame, and an inner telescopic member slides within the outer member and is clamped to the outer member. A drive shaft extending through the inner member is coupled to a flywheel and an energy absorber with an electrical feedback controller to vary the resistance as speed varies. The chair is mounted on a trunnion on side rails mounted on upright members. The fixed portion of the boom and the forward end of the rails is supported on an upright member which is welded to the leg of an “I”shaped base.

Recumbent exercise apparatus comprising a frame, a chair connected to the frame and supported by the frame, the chair having a seat portion and a back portion, a boom connected to the frame and extending from the frame forward of the chair, the boom having a proximal end mounted beneath the chair and a distal end remote from the chair, journal bearing means connected to a distal end of the boom and extending transverse to the boom in a generally horizontal direction, a shaft mounted in the journal bearing, the shaft having first and second opposite ends, first and second crank means, each having proximal and distal ends of the first and second cranks, the pedal means extending generally horizontally outward from the distal ends, and means, for providing resistance to the turning of the shaft by the pedal means and cranks, wherein the shaft comprises a crank shaft and further comprising a drive shaft extending rearwardly from the distal end of the boom to the proximal end of the boom and further comprising gear means at the distal end of the boom for connecting the crank shaft and drive shaft and for increasing the speed of rotation of the drive shaft in relation to the crankshaft and further comprising energy absorbing means connected to the frame at a proximal end of the boom and connected to an end of the drive shaft adjacent the proximal end of the boom for absorbing energy from the drive shaft, which energy is delivered to the drive shaft by the crank shaft.
